Spurriergate, York: same time, same place!


We've seen the Spurriergate Centre clock before, sadly stuck at seven minutes to five. This is the busy Ousegate-Spurriergate junction. Shopaholics, turn left or go straight ahead, but come back here for lunch or a cuppa. The Spurriergate Centre serves good food in an interesting setting on two floors, and is a also a convenient place for quality Fair Trade gifts and souvenirs.

  1. Interesting how the modern retail stores have been integrated in with the old architecture. From this perspective, it looks nice. Twist my arm, I'll lunch there.

  2. I'm late again, but welcome back Mark!

    I just love how Europe and even Canada have re-purposed their beautiful old buildings. Much better than abandoning them until they deteriorate completely or, worse, demolishing them altogether.
